Coaching

SCRA is promoting a UKCC coaching course, offered by British Rowing, which teaches Coaching Technique relevant to Coastal Rowing Clubs.  We are hoping to run the course again in Scotland over two weekends next Easter.

Umpiring

SCRA intend to introduce a programme to develop the knowledge and confidence of umpires.  In the meantime any one who may be called upon to umpire at an SCRA event should familiarise themselves with the rules of racing, and any local rules relevant to the event at which they are to umpire.
